Emperor Yuanwu walked over and sat down next to the Empress Dowager.
The Empress knelt down and walked to Emperor Yuanwu's side: "Your Majesty, you must do justice for me! Consort Shu... Consort Shu wanted to burn me alive."
"Achoo!" Mu Qianqian cried, her eyes brimming with tears. "Achoo, achoo..."
She sneezed several times in a row.
The Empress Dowager scolded, "The princess is so young, why did you bring her here in the middle of the night? Look, she's getting cold."
Achoo!
Mu Qianqian was held in the Empress Dowager's arms: "Quickly go and get a blanket. This child is so small, what if she catches a cold?"
[Waaaaah...]
Is this Grandma?
Grandma's voice is so gentle, and she cares about me so much.
Grandma, I'm okay, I just...
Achoo!
The Empress Dowager was taken aback.
What was that sound?
Who was speaking just now?
grandmother!?
Could it be the baby in her arms?
Having lived most of my life, this is the first time I've encountered something so strange.
She... could actually hear her granddaughter's thoughts.
Just then.
The nanny brought over a blanket.
The Empress Dowager wrapped the blanket around Mu Qianqian and turned her over.
Make Mu Qianqian look at her face to face.
Mu Qianqian still had tears clinging to the corners of her eyes.
The moment his eyes met those of the Empress Dowager.
A deep smile instantly appeared at the corner of her eye.
Who could resist a little baby smiling at them? Especially Mu Qianqian, who was fair-skinned and lovely, with pink and tender skin, chubby and fair, and a pair of bright and piercing eyes that revealed an innocence that could never be seen in the palace.
That smile.
It made the Empress Dowager laugh right to her heart's content.
When Consort Shu gave birth to Mu Qianqian, she was still under house arrest.
Later, the Empress Dowager fell ill.
This was the first time she had met this granddaughter.
Mu Qianqian smiled at the Empress Dowager again, and this time she laughed out loud.
That night, the Empress Dowager was so annoyed by the Empress that her head was throbbing.
Mu Qianqian was undoubtedly the best medicine to relieve her current mood of frustration.
When I saw a single tear clinging to her eyelashes.
The Empress Dowager's face instantly darkened: "Emperor, the child was just crying?"
Emperor Yuanwu was taken aback by the question: "When I just woke up, I couldn't find Consort Shu, so she started crying. I couldn't soothe her no matter what I did, so I had to bring her to find her mother."
just!?
The room became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
When the Empress heard the word "just now," her temples throbbed twice.
"Didn't the Emperor choose Consort Qing tonight?" the Empress Dowager asked in surprise.
News came from the Imperial Household Department tonight that Emperor Yuanwu had chosen Consort Qing, and he was so annoyed that he barely ate dinner.
Although Consort Qing has contributed to this epidemic, we should give her a title and let her stay in the palace with good food and drink.
Why must she still serve the emperor in bed?
You need to know.
That was a beauty sent by Ningguo; she might be a spy, and she could be a threat to Emperor Yuanwu.
Just thinking about it makes me break out in a cold sweat.
"I chose Consort Qing. In the evening, when I was coaxing Qianqian in Qiluan Garden, Qianqian kept making a fuss, I don't know if she was feeling unwell. I was coaxing her, and somehow she fell asleep, so I rested in Qiluan Garden," Emperor Yuanwu explained casually.
The entire room was startled by what they heard.
"What? His Majesty stayed at Qiluan Garden tonight?"
"His Majesty said it himself, how could it be false?"
"The Empress insisted that she personally witnessed Consort Shu setting fire to Yikun Palace..."
